Be an Active Voter and Vote Absentee!
The U.S. Embassy and Consulates General in Brazil will host virtual office hours via Zoom, during which a Voting Assistance Officer will be available to assist U.S. citizens who wish to register to vote and cast a ballot from outside the United States in the upcoming election.
Two virtual office hours will take place next Tuesday, September 8 from 6:00–7:00 p.m. Brasilia time and Thursday, September 10 from 7:00–8:00 a.m. Brasilia time. During these sessions, U.S. citizens will have the opportunity to enter a designated breakout room for a one–on–one chat with a Voting Assistance Officer. We encourage U.S. citizens across Brazil with an interest in this topic to participate.
